This blog will be a place for me to keep track of things that I have found to be useful. For example, in this first post I am linking to an excellent resource for anyone interested in acheiving peaceful coexistence among Windows 7, CentOS 6, and Ubuntu 12, all on one hard drive:
http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2011/05/31/how-to-triple-boot-fedora-15-ubuntu-11-04-and-windows-7/
teh intenets are littered with worse-than-useless "how-tos" and "solutions" that accomplish nothing but wasting our time and encouraging misanthropic despair. But this article was one of the most amazingly helpful and well written I've ever seen.
I used CentOS 6.3 instead of fedora 15, and I used ubuntu 12 instead of ubuntu 11. Also, I had to first restore my original windows mbr using my repair disk, due to the fact that I had previously blown it away from doing multiple installs of both CentOS and Ubuntu without really caring what was happening with regard to "who" was being given charge of boot management (thus allowing grub to seize control, which is workable, but not, at least in my opinion, ideal).
Coming soon: An (almost) absolute beginner's guide to getting started with Android programming (assuming that you already know a little xml and java, which, unless you do, well, you gotta learn that first, but I'll try to give some pointers there, too).
